What is cryptosporidiosis?

An intestinal infection caused by a parasite (Cryptosporidium hominis or Cryptosporidium parvum)

What are the signs or symptoms?

Acute watery diarrhea.

Fever.

Vomiting.

Abdominal cramps.

Fatigue.

Lack of appetite.

Many individuals are infected and infectious without signs or symptoms.

Illness may last 1 to 20 days (average of 10 days) in normal children; can last much longer in immunocompromised children.

What are the incubation and contagious periods?

Incubation period: 7 days is average but can vary from 3 to 14 days.

Contagious period: Passage of the parasite in the stool can occur for 2 weeks.

How is it spread?

Fecal-oral route: Contact with feces of children who are infected. This generally involves an infected child contaminating his own fingers, and then playing in communal water (during water play) or touching an object that another child touches. The child who has contact with the communal water or touched the contaminated surface then puts her fingers into her own mouth or another person’s mouth. About 2% to 4% of children without symptoms in child care settings pass Cryptosporidium oocysts (eggs; the infectious form of the parasite) in their stools.

Most commonly spread through contaminated swimming or wading water or other water used for recreation by more than one person. Young children commonly let some fecal material escape into the water while they are playing. The largest outbreaks of waterborne disease occur in the summer months and involve children who are younger than 5 years. Contaminated municipal water supplies can cause outbreaks too.

The parasite is resistant to chlorine, which is commonly used to prevent infections from water used for swimming. For this reason, Cryptosporidium is the leading cause of treated recreational water–associated outbreaks of diarrhea. Cryptosporidium oocysts that spread diarrheal disease can remain infectious for more than 10 days in chlorine concentrations typically required for swimming pools.

Outbreaks can occur in child care settings and are thought to be spread person-to-person at high rates, as well as from contaminated water sources.

Animals in petting zoos can transmit the parasite.

How do you control it?

Use good hand-hygiene technique at all the times listed in Chapter 2, especially after toilet use or handling soiled diapers and before anything to do with food preparation or eating.

Ensure proper surface disinfection that includes cleaning and rinsing of surfaces that may have become contaminated with stool (feces) with detergent and water and application of a US Environmental Protection Agency– registered disinfectant according to the instructions on the product label.

Ensure proper cooking and storage of food.

Exclusion of infected staff members who handle food.

Exclusion for specific types of symptoms (see Exclude from group setting?).

Children with Cryptosporidium diarrhea should not participate in water play activities.

Use a combination of water disinfection and proper pool maintenance. For young children, consider restricting communal water play to water contact above the waist or limiting play in a body of water that involves getting wet below the waist to one person before the water is replaced by fresh water. Advise swimmers and waders to use the toilet before using recreational water to reduce the likelihood they will release feces into the water. Encourage total body rinsing (showering) before and after using recreational water, and avoiding swallowing the water.

What are the roles of the teacher/caregiver and the family?

Usually, teachers/caregivers will not know a child has cryptosporidiosis because the condition is not distinguishable from other common forms of watery diarrhea. So the following recommendations apply for a child with diarrhea from any cause (see Diarrhea Quick Reference Sheet):

Report the infection to the local health department, as the health professional who makes the diagnosis may not report that the infected child is a participant in an early education/child care program or school. This could lead to loss of precious time for controlling the spread of the disease.

Ensure staff members follow the control measures listed under How do you control it?

Follow the advice of the child’s or staff member’s health care provider.

Report the infection to the local health department, as the health professional who makes the diagnosis may not report that the infected child is a participant in a child care program or school, and this could lead to loss of precious time for controlling the spread of the disease. In an outbreak, follow the direction of the local health department.

Know that medication is not needed for most infected children who have diarrhea.

Exclude from group setting?

Yes, if

The local health department determines exclusion is needed to control an outbreak.

The child is unable to participate and staff members determine they cannot care for the child without compromising their ability to care for the health and safety of the other children in the group.

Stool is not contained in the diaper for diapered children.

Diarrhea is causing “accidents” for toilet-trained children.

Stool frequency exceeds 2 stools above normal during the time the child is in the program because this may cause too much work for teachers/caregivers and make it difficult for them to maintain sanitary conditions.

There is blood or mucus in stool.

The child has a dry mouth, no tears, or no urine output in 8 hours (suggesting the child’s diarrhea may be causing dehydration).

The child is unable to participate and staff members determine they cannot care for the child without compromising their ability to care for the health and safety of the other children in the group

Note: For teachers/caregivers and children without symptoms (ie, recently recovered or exposed), testing stool cultures, treatment, and exclusion are not necessary.

Readmit to group setting?

Yes, when all the following criteria are met:

Once diapered children have their stool contained by the diaper (even if the stools remain loose) and when toilet-trained children do not have toileting accidents

Once stool frequency is no more than 2 stools above normal during the time the child is in the program, even if the stools remain loose

When the child is able to participate and staff members determine they can care for the child without compromising their ability to care for the health and safety of the other children in the group

Note: It is not necessary to demonstrate negative Cryptosporidium stool test results to be readmitted to the group setting.
